Ironless linear motors are used when high dynamics needs to be combined with extremely smooth motion. They are ideal for applications where extremely constant velocity is required, such as in optics inspection, metrology, photonics, interferometry, and semiconductor test equipment. The frictionless, zero-wear motor drives are also popular in fast automation applications, where reliability and maximum up-time are mission-critical.
